Abstract:

This report describes the solution of a typical solid propellant grain design requirement using the Hewlett-Packard 41C hand held calculator and a program for the solution of Wagon Wheel, Modified Wagon Wheel and Star Grain designs. A grain design for an experimental rocket, PLUME is given. The HP41C program is given in Appendix A. Author
